Stems by Subscription

There are few things that make your home feel more lively and fragrant than a fresh bouquet of carefully curated flowers, yet our hectic lives hardly yield enough time to shop for and arrange fresh flowers each week.

Cue floral subscription delivery service, The Stemmery. This unique Seattle-based business comes on the heels of the growing lifestyle subscription movement from services like BarkBox for pet lovers, Bump Boxes for expectant moms, and LootCrate for the geeky gamer crowd.

The difference here is The Stemmery will hand deliver locally sourced, artfully arranged bouquets directly to homes, restaurants, hotels, and other businesses in Seattle, Bellevue, and Kirkland.

“I love carefully placing each unique stem into an arrangement, feeling the connection to the earth and appreciating the beauty that comes from it,” founder and floral designer Sarah Abare said in a statement. “I hope that each time our customers receive a floral delivery from The Stemmery that they too feel this connection and joy.”

Arrangements come in three different sizes including the Rainier Bouquet, a collection of loosely arranged flowers; Cascadian Stems, a fairly standard arrangement; and the grand Olympic Blooms, which is a larger display of curated flowers. Additionally, clients can choose from a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly subscription. However, The Stemmery is not able to deliver outside of Seattle, Bellevue, or Kirkland, although the company said it hopes to expand its delivery area soon.
